6 Industrial style home office designs every homeowner should check out
Ever since its inception back in the 20th century, industrial style has democratised interior design for mass adoption.
While some would argue this interior design style finds its roots from 18th century warehouses. Exposed brick walls, wooden rafters, open plan design, furniture made of recessed woods, metal structures, muted tones, etc are stapes of this style. If you want an industrial style home office, remember that the goal of this design is removing any decoration and allowing the natural and man-made elements to stand out.
It can be a desk made of rugged wood, a metal free-standing shelf, exposed bulbs or track lighting, or concrete walls, giving your home office a factory vibe, while ensuring its functionality and comfort.
So, are you ready to stop dreaming and start your home office renovation journey? Then, here are 7 kickass modern industrial home office design ideas.
Pristine Industrial Style Office Desk Cum TV Unit
If you are limited on space, consider zoning the area of your living room for a study. One of the easy ways to achieve it is by installing a customised modular TV unit that features a floating office desk. Take cue from the image below. To the industrial look, we exposed bricks on the back wall but painted it white to soften the vibe.
Industrial Style Home Office With Partially Exposed Wall
Love natural light in your space? What better way to set up your home office than to have a pull out industrial style office desk set up by the window if you want a view. It is a great option if you want some extra space while working. This space-saving office desk is one of our featured items. As you can see in the office space below, the wall is distinctively divided with exposed brick on one side and muted grey wall on the other. This space is a true work of art.
Guest Bedroom cum Industrial Home Office Decor
In big cities, space is luxury and comes with a very high price tag. So the next best option is to design and use the same room for various purposes. For instance, if you live in a 2BHK apartment and only have one room to be used as both guest bedroom and office space, then why not have the best of both worlds? We used a daybed for your guests to sleep in and lounge and kept the room aesthetic neutral. The freestanding charcoal bookshelf compliments the dark wooden rafters on the ceiling. The exposed brick wall and grey modular study table add quintessential industrial style to the space.

This room is a perfect example of how an industrial home office should look like.
